Stay Tuned By Stan Cornyn: Rock Lost and Found, Part One (Article)
Tuesday, December 24, 2013
Every Tuesday and Thursday, former Warner Bros. Records executive and industry insider Stan Cornyn ruminates on the past, present, and future of the music business. Decades and decades ago, to find a record, you’d go buy it in a record store (probably). Fifty years later, record stores are fewer. So that physical record (a 45, a 33, rarely a 78, iffy a tape) with its cover, label, and “liner” notes, that feels like it’s all over. Internet downloads don’t contain liner notes and liner photos or covers or labels. It’s like a repeat of what happened to records back farther, back in the 1930s

Stay Tuned By Stan Cornyn: Gordon Lightfoot (Article)

Every Tuesday and Thursday, former Warner Bros. Records executive and industry insider Stan Cornyn ruminates on the past, present, and future of the music business. 1970-1978 Coming to Warner/Reprise from his first label, United Artists, Canadian Gordon Lightfoot had already become a singing heavyweight, having experienced a decade of singing his songs on the road. He had become one of Canada’s mighty song writers, like Joni Mitchell, Buffy St. Marie, and Leonard Cohen. He’d been managed since 1964 by Al Grossman out of New York (who also managed Peter, Paul & Mary; Bob Dylan; Ian & Sylvia

November 1980: Eagles Release EAGLES LIVE (Article)
Friday, November 6, 2020
By the time Eagles saddled up to the band’s first live album in 1980, Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Joe Walsh, Don Felder, Randy Meisner and Timothy B. Schmit were already rock stars of the highest order. The group’s two previous studio albums Hotel California (1976) and The Long Run (1980) both peaked at #1 on the Billboard 200 for multiple weeks, producing massive chart and radio hits. EAGLES LIVE, released November 7, 1980, should have been a victory lap for the Eagles, a celebration of rising from the streets of Los Angeles in 1971 to become one of the biggest bands in rock. Instead, it signaled

Stay Tuned By Stan Cornyn: Cream On (Article)
Tuesday, June 11, 2013
Every Tuesday and Thursday, former Warner Bros. Records executive and industry insider Stan Cornyn ruminates on the past, present, and future of the music business. Around 1965 or so, rock/blues musicians often floated from band to band, without breaking any contract. Afloat amid the shifting bands, shifting from jazz to blues to rock to psychedelic, were these three kings: • Ginger Baker (drummer) felt constrained by his gig leading the Graham Bond Organisation, even though Bond himself was generally praised for bringing English R&B to life. But Bond did drugs too much, and Baker wanted out

The Doors (Article)
Tuesday, January 21, 2014
The Doors were among the most intense and revolutionary bands of the Sixties (or any decade, for that matter). The impact of their meteoric career has resonated far beyond their brief half-decade as a recording and performing entity. Their words and music captured the Sixties zeitgeist with undeniable power. A cult of personality continues to surround Jim Morrison, their tempestuous lead singer. Morrison was a brooding, charismatic frontman in the classic mold of Elvis Presley and Mick Jagger. Yet he was given to more extreme and confrontational forms of behavior than those icons. Morrison

Bob Lefsetz: Welcome To My World - "Jan & Dean Primer" (Article)
Friday, May 23, 2014
Brian Wilson gets all the respect and Jan Berry's been forgotten and I'm gonna try to rectify that right now. "THE LITTLE OLD LADY (FROM PASADENA)" Because it's the one you know. When I first heard this in the summer of '64 I had no idea where Pasadena was, but I was enraptured nonetheless. I can still remember hearing this on the transistor blaring over the pavilion at the beach in Fairfield, Connecticut as I waited for them to deliver my ten cent fries. She may be the terror of Colorado Boulevard, she may be implored to go, but the magic is in Dean's harmonies, and the way the song starts

Dr. Rhino's Picks #169 (Article)
Wednesday, August 24, 2016
Dr. Rhino's still on vacation (Ed. Must be nice...). So, let us revisit one of his classic playlists! The Doctor will be back in the saddle next week, making new playlists just for you...yes you! ABOUT DR. RHINO A young Dr. Rhino first encountered the magic of song whilst being born in the front seat of a Lincoln Continental. As the attending physician recalls, the tune was “Touch Me In The Morning” by Diana Ross. It was a mind-blower. Over the years, Dr. Rhino listened to many, many more songs. And, after several summers of diggin’ music, making the scene & a stint in Attica, the good doctor

The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sometimes in the Raw The Chili Peppers were medium Hot back in 1990. Like “Pink Hot.” They’d been on EMI Records but that deal was over. So they put themselves out on the industry’s “Availables” menu, and record labels bid with gusto. Warner Bros. Records bid high, but were outbid by Sony/Epic, Warners’ biggest rival. At Warner, that loss made us feel a bit less Hot. Warner’s head Mo Ostin phoned one of

The Crickets (Article)

Jerry Allison (drums; born August 31, 1938), Sonny Curtis (guitar; born May 9, 1937), Joe B. Mauldin (bass; born July 8, 1939), Niki Sullivan (guitar; born June 23, 1937, died April 6, 2004)The Crickets were Buddy Holly's group from 1956 to 1958, contributing significantly to his sound and success. As a self-contained group that wrote their own songs, Buddy Holly and the Crickets served to inspire a torrent of bands that followed in the Sixties, including the Beatles and the Hollies. Their two-guitar, bass and drums lineup would become a virtual blueprint for rock bands. During this period

Every Tuesday and Thursday, former Warner Bros.

Paul flew out, listened, and told Jac he was nuts to sign this group. Holzman stood firm, telling Rothchild “Paul, you owe me. You’ve got to do this band. You’re the only person for the job.” Paul Rothchild did produce The Doors for Elektra, using 19-year-old engineer Bruce
